This video teaser for Gestalten's upcoming book, Papercraft: Design and Art with Paper, showcases the often bright, punchy and pop-culture-relevant work from artists Jeremais Boettcher, Julien Vallée, Asif Mian and more — who employ techniques as simple as cutting and folding to cutting-edge like embossing and laser cutting.
